Biography
Liu Can was the son of Emperor Zhaowu of Han Zhao and Empress Huyan of Han Zhao, and he was Prince of Henei and a general of Han Zhao under his father. He had to plot against his father's brother Liu Ai, the crown prince, and in spring of 317 he decided to remove his uncle. The Di and Qiang chiefs that supported Liu Ai were coerced into confessing a "plot", and Liu Ai's supporters (some 15,000 people) were massacred and Liu Ai assassinated by Liu Can's father-in-law Jin Zhun. Liu Can was made crown prince by his father, and he succeeded him on his death in 318. He left all affairs of state to Jin Zhun as he purged the government, but his tyrannical behavior led to his uncle having him murdered in 318.
